I think a black sweater will be perfect. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-a-holiday-skirt#post-1081747 Mon, 11 Nov 2013 23:07:17 +0000 hedgiehog 1081747@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for all the feedback, everyone! I had the day off today so I went shopping and found a beautiful fine knit black sweater as Deborah had suggested. I think I can wear it with different bottoms and dress it up or down. I love the feel of the fabric and detail on the back. Can't wait to wear it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-a-holiday-skirt#post-1081299 Mon, 11 Nov 2013 16:56:12 +0000 Thistle 1081299@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How do button downs work for you? If they do, I think a crisp black or a crisp white would be fab. A silky top might work as well.</p> <p>Personally, I love the skirt, and was eyeing up something similar. I was planning to pair it with a cashmere sweater to keep me warm!&nbsp; I beleive you are in a warmer climate, so perhaps a wrap top or a fine guage sweater would&nbsp; work well for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-a-holiday-skirt#post-1081188 Mon, 11 Nov 2013 14:39:19 +0000 rute 1081188@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For a more fancy event, I would go with a silk black or cobalt blouse, nice kitten heel pumps.<br />For a more casual ocasion you can wear:<br />- a simple white tee, black moto jacket, booties<br />- a chunky white or grey sweater, black oxfords</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-a-holiday-skirt#post-1081186 Mon, 11 Nov 2013 14:38:14 +0000 annaj 1081186@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it sounds gorgeous!!

It has a retro feel that you can play up or down, and of course you can experiment with color big-time if you like the contrast.</p> <p>I am currently in "bedazzle it!" mode so if you wanted to turn away from sleek you *could* try to find a black, cream, or silver&nbsp;sequined top. Hey: it *is* for the holidays! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-a-holiday-skirt#post-1081022 Mon, 11 Nov 2013 06:41:17 +0000 lyn* 1081022@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd pair it with a thicker leather belt and a flowy pussy-bow blouse in a colour complimentary to either the darker or the lighter pattern of the skirt - great pick, by the way! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-a-holiday-skirt#post-1081004 Mon, 11 Nov 2013 06:13:20 +0000 AJ 1081004@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A simple top with moto jacket to add some edge to the curtain/sofa print. </p> <p>I have a vest with a similar baroque-ish print that I'm having a hard time styling. I'll be watching this thread with interest. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-a-holiday-skirt#post-1080997 Mon, 11 Nov 2013 05:58:49 +0000 Neel 1080997@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lovely skirt!</p> <p>I would wear it with a black or white or even cobalt silky button down shirt, buttoned right to the top with a chunky necklace over the collar. For shoes I would choose pointy toe black pumps. I would go with or without a hose.</p> <p>I would try and get a picture later when I get to my laptop. </p> <p>ETA: &nbsp;Found the pic on my pinterest board.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-a-holiday-skirt#post-1080903 Mon, 11 Nov 2013 02:25:08 +0000 Gigi 1080903@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the idea of pearls. I love the skirt too! It seems that there has been a lot of brocade-type stuff out recently--I love this style.</p> <p>I think I would keep the top simple, whatever you choose to go with it. I think that having black in the ensemble would be a no-brainer, because it really makes the pattern in the skirt stand out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-a-holiday-skirt#post-1080896 Mon, 11 Nov 2013 02:19:46 +0000 carter 1080896@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it! What about a silk wrap blouse in any of the skirt's colors, plus a big chunky strand or two of pearls? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-a-holiday-skirt#post-1080854 Mon, 11 Nov 2013 01:09:52 +0000 Deborah 1080854@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's beautiful.&nbsp; I also have a real love of curtain and sofa fabrics:)</p> <p>There are quite a few options for toppers.&nbsp; White crisp shirt.&nbsp; Simple black fine knit sweater.&nbsp; Dressy Tee.&nbsp; </p> <p>Cannot wait to see you wear this </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-a-holiday-skirt#post-1080852 Mon, 11 Nov 2013 01:05:37 +0000 hedgiehog 1080852@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello YLF friends, It's been a WHILE since my last post and I have been regrettably absent from the forum. I am making an effort to lurk less and post more. :)<br />I am reaching out to all of you for some holiday styling advice.....I recently purchased a silver jacquard pencil skirt and Angie's recent post on the lace pencil skirt got me thinking.....<br />I'm having a hard time deciding exactly what to wear with this one....it's not lace and it has a bit of a sheen to it. Honestly, it reminds me of an old curtain or sofa....but there's something about it I love.&nbsp;<br />It's a bit long for me, so I'm going to tailor it to knee length.<br />Any thoughts on what I could wear on top?<br />Thank you all in advance! </p>
